The former member of Congress and New York City mayoral candidate sent the teenager graphic sexual messages, asking her to do things like dress up as a "school girl," according to screen grabs of conversations published by The Daily Mail.

Weiner and the unidentified 15-year-old frequently talked on Skype as well, according to the report.

He also sent her several shirtless photographs of himself.

The charges were not denied by Weiner, who released a vague statement to The Daily Mail saying he had been the victim of a "hoax" but also that he had "repeatedly demonstrated terrible judgement about the people I have communicated with online and the things I have sent."

Last month, after The New York Post reported that Weiner had sexted with another woman, Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin, a top Hillary Clinton aide, announced they would split up.
